, p. 13790 - 13799 (2021/10/12)
The oxidation of diaryl sulfides and aryl alkyl sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones under electrochemical conditions is reported. Sulfoxides are selectively obtained in good yield under a constant current of 5 mA for 10 h in DMF, while sulfones are formed as the major product under a constant current of 10 or 20 mA for 10 h in MeOH. The oxygen of both the sulfoxide and sulfone function is derived from water.

A palladium-catalyzed arylation of aryl sulfenate anions generated from aryl 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl sulfoxides and CsF has been developed. This protocol is effective for the synthesis of diaryl sulfoxides and heteroaryl aryl sulfoxides under mild conditions employing aryl bromides. Various functional groups, including those with acidic protons, are well tolerated.

The present report describes an efficient and clean generation of sulfenate salts (R1SO-) by pyrolysis of readily available tert-butyl sulfoxides to give sulfenic acids (R1SOH) and traceless isobutene, followed by hydrogen abstraction with a weak inorganic base (K3PO4). The relevance of this process was exemplified through an in situ palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction with aryl halides/triflates leading to aryl sulfoxides. The operationally simple C-S bond-forming protocol developed uses Pd(dba)2 as catalyst and Xantphos as ligand in toluene or a toluene/H2O mixture. Further extensions include the use of di-tert-butyl sulfoxide as an equivalent for sulfur monoxide dianion (SO2-) and the development of diastereoselective versions in the [2.2]paracyclophane and biaryl series.

A novel approach to produce diaryl sulfoxides from aryl benzyl sulfoxides is reported. Optimization of the reaction conditions was performed using high-throughput experimentation techniques. The [Pd(dba)2]/NiXantPhos catalyst system successfully promotes a triple relay process involving sulfoxide α-arylation, C-S bond cleavage, and C-S bond formation. The byproduct benzophenone is formed by an additional palladium-catalyzed process. It is noteworthy that palladium-catalyzed benzylative C-S bond cleavage of sulfoxides is unprecedented. A wide range of aryl benzyl sulfoxides, as well as alkyl benzyl sulfoxides with various (hetero)aryl bromides were employed in the triple relay process in good to excellent yields (85-99 %). Moreover, aryl methyl sulfoxides, dibenzyl sulfoxides, and dimethylsulfoxide could be utilized to generate diaryl sulfoxides involving multiple catalytic cycles by a single catalyst. Three for one: The [Pd(dba)2]/NiXantPhos (dba=dibenzylideneacetone) catalyst system successfully promotes a triple relay process involving sulfoxide α-arylation, C-S bond cleavage, and C-S bond formation to give diaryl sulfoxides (see picture). Aryl benzyl sulfoxides, as well as alkyl benzyl sulfoxides reacted with various (hetero)aryl bromides. Copyright
